LED keyboard of a notebook computer
An LED keyboard of a notebook computer comprises a plurality of interlaced slots, each having a cluster of retaining holes. Roughly at the center of the cluster of retaining holes, there is a flexible body wherein a light-emitting body is installed. Each of the light-emitting bodies has a set of conducting feet extended thereunder, which is kept at a distance from a base. The base further includes a conducting film and a plurality of retaining rings. A scissored foot set is mounted above within each of the slots, having a key cap mounted on the scissored foot set. Thereby, as the key cap is stroked, the scissored foot set will shift downward and the conducting feet will contact with a copper-foil wire on the conducting film, activating the light-emitting body. As the key cap is not stroked, the flexible body will restore the original configuration.
1. An LED keyboard of a notebook computer, comprising:
a plurality of interlaced slots each having a cluster of retaining holes, a scissored foot set being mount above each said interlaced slots having a key cap mounted thereon;
a plurality of flexible bodies respectively mounted at a center of corresponding cluster of retaining holes;
a plurality of light-emitting bodies respectively installed within said flexible bodies, each of said light-emitting bodies having a set of conducting feet; and
a plurality of bases each located under one said slot having a plurality of retaining ring-shaped projections and a conducting film, each of said light-emitting bodies being kept at a distance from a corresponding base by corresponding flexible body and scissored foot set;
whereby, as a key cap is stroked, a corresponding one of said scissored foot sets will shift downward and a corresponding conducting feet will contact with a copper-foil wire on a corresponding conducting film, activating a corresponding one of said light-emitting bodies, and whereby, as a key cap is not stroked, a corresponding flexible body will restore its original configuration, and the feet of a corresponding light-emitting body will again depart from a corresponding conducting film so that a corresponding one of said light-emitting body stopping illuminating.
2. The LED keyboard of a notebook computer of claim 1 wherein said key caps and said flexible bodies are made of a transparent material.
3. The LED keyboard of a notebook computer of claim 1 wherein each of light-emitting bodies is attached to a top inner face of a corresponding said flexible body; said conducting feet of said light-emitting bodies being held at a distance to a bottom end of each of said flexible bodies, whereby said conducting feet will not contact with said copper-foil wires on said based.
4. The LED keyboard of a notebook computer of claim 1 wherein said scissored foot sets between said bases and said flexible bodies are each capable of moving up and down, facilitating said light-emitting bodies moving accordingly within said flexible bodies.
5. The LED keyboard of a notebook computer of claim 1 wherein said light-emitting bodies are controlled by a light-intensity switch to turn on or shut off the light of said light-emitting bodies.
6. The LED keyboard of a notebook computer of claim 1 wherein said key caps receives the electromagnetic signal of an incoming call from a cell phone, whereby a user can be reminded of said incoming call of said cell phone.
7. The LED keyboard of a notebook computer of claim 1 wherein said key caps of said notebook computer can receive a signal from said notebook computer.
8. The LED keyboard of a notebook computer of claim 1 wherein a keyboard carrying said key caps is further provided with a light switch, a light-intensity increasing switch, a light-intensity decreasing switch and an advertisement pattern switch.
